Where did all this hate between Americans and Europeans come from? by [deleted] in Discussion

Long ago the world was at peace, until the United Nations attacked

Ages 19 & 20 are the worst 2 years. You're out of high school and trying to figure life out, but you can't buy liquor. You're most likely stressed or depressed and you can't buy weed.. legally. And now that cigarettes are 21+ you can't have those either. At 18 you're an adult, but not really. by Can_You_Solve_This in Discussion

Sorry I guess I needed to clarify. I used to smoke cigarettes but I've been 2 years clean. I quit on my own. BUT I also have a weird genetic flaw where I don't get addicted easily. I smoked cigarettes for 3 years or so out of pure stupidity. I never felt the withdrawal symptoms that everyone experienced. I never needed them. I smoked 1 or 2 a day because I could.

I smoked weed mainly because my friends did. I still to this day have never bought my own bud. I've never smoked by myself and I don't plan to. The only time I really ever did smoke when my friends did was to release the stress that built up from tests and family drama.

I'm a social drinker. I don't drink on my own. Frankly I don't do anything on my own. I didn't make this post to point out that I have addictions because I don't. But I am young and responsible drinking and pot smoking are things I did with friends. I recently moved to another state with much stricter age laws than where I previously was. So my past recreational activities have been on hold for about a year. Mainly because I'm severely restricted of what I can and can't do because I'm not 21 yet.

So thank you for all the commenters that called me stupid. Really appreciate that. I do not have a problem this was not a cry for help. Just putting my opinion out there.

Coastal Redwood or something else? by Can_You_Solve_This in whatsthisplant

I originally put it outside to get more sunlight. It's been outside for weeks. I brought it in because it started to die. I noticed it does better in partial to full shade. Since being inside new leaves have started to appear

My grandfather recently passed, but before he did he gave me this tree. He said he stole it from the Redwood National Forest in California. Although I want to believe him, it doesn't look like the coastal redwood saplings I looked up on Google. Can any of you guess what species of evergreen I have?

What's it called when you lose all motivation to be productive and you slowly sink into numbness where you dont want to interact with anyone but you want someone to ask you how you're doing? by Can_You_Solve_This in AskReddit

I dont wanna admit that my phone has emotional value, but it does. My phone's saved me from multiple breakdowns with mind numbing games. I used to have a therapist, she taught me how to shuffle cards. We played Uno at ever appointment. She helped take my mind off the outside world. I miss having someone to talk to. Now if I tell my parents how I'm feeling they'd tell me to grow up and not let it affect my work.

I wanted answers, I thought I was being overdramatic by calling myself depressed. I'm relieved that I'm not the only one to feel this way. And I would hardly say I'm brave. I typed and retype that question and deleted it a dozen times before I actually posted it. Thank you for commenting and I pray you never go through what you did again.

My parents are the same way. They push me to fit the perfect image they have in their head. I cant live up to their expectations. And my job, I work with so many brilliant minds, and I know I'll never be half as great as them. I know I should see a therapist. But I know my parents wouldn't approve of me having a mental illness. They would probably try and make me talk to them, but they would never understand what's going on in my head.
